I posted this on the tech board, but figured the OB would appreciate these pics. Had an oh shite moment while flying my drone this past weekend. There were thousand soldiers of geese in the fields below. I was a couple of hundred feet up when these guys made an appearance.

cool pictures, I had a hawk strike at and miss a mini drone I had (no camera) then a few days ago I saw a bald eagle fly over and I ran and got the drone to film and saw no sign of it.

What model drone are you using? Have been wanting to get into flying them for a while but I don't know jack about them.

I just got my Mavic Pro and am still figuring out how to use it. Still makes me nervous to fly it out of site. That home button is nice though. Pretty crazy the technology involved in those things.

It is going to be perfect for scouting our fields for turkey this spring.

That looks like 3 mile lake in Port Barre. We hunt something very similar to that.
